Anyone near to Bracknell who can help me with some troubleshooting?

Last month I built a mini-ITX PC to use in the living room, using the following specs:

Gigabyte B450 I mini-ITX motherboard
Ryzen 3400G APU
16GB Crucial Ballistix memory
AData XPG SX8200 Pro NVMe drive
Pico PSU 160-XT
Noctua NH-L9A-AM4 cooler
Morex 557 case

This was all working fine a few weeks ago, took the case off an tidied up the cabling a little bit and then didn't use it until I wanted to connect it up to my folks' TV via HDMI - now get no display at all. PC powers up, Noctua fan on the cooler spins, power LED lights up - but no signal at all. Tried different displays and different HDMI cables - nothing helps.

Not sure if it's the motherboard or the APU or something else. Ideally looking for someone with a AM4 APU and/or the same motherboard who wouldn't mind helping me with some troubleshooting by swapping parts out. If that's not possible, probably going to have to take it to a shop/send it to OCUK and pay them to troubleshoot it (stupidly - and very rarely - I didn't buy this lot from OCUK)

Happy to provide beers and get some takeaway in if someone is willing to help

First thing I would do is check all your cables are tight try another hdmi cable .

Cheers Scubes, had already tried another HDMI cable etc. Not sure what the issue was to be honest, shorted the clear CMOS pins and it then booted fine the next time, so all working.
